Sometimes your immune system needs a little boost. A nice, comforting soup can warm your cockles whilst also support your immune system if you’re feeling a tad run down.

Cabbage and spring greens are in season right now and make a great base for a hearty, healthy soup. Add garlic and onion – both renowned for their immune boosting properties – a courgette or two, plus stock cube and seasoning for flavour.
While the soup bubbles away, sip on a warming ginger tea made with fresh grated ginger, for an added boost. Ginger tea is also a great way to settle an unhappy tummy (yeah so, I was at a wedding at the weekend…).
Chase away the sniffles without the calories, and don’t forget to listen to some Aretha Franklin as you cook – undoubtedly the best soup making music 🙂
